Program details

Six Banyan Tree Temple - It has an outstanding history which spans across 1,400 years. It is one of the "Top Four Buddhist Temples" in Guangzhou, alongside Haitong Temple, Guangxiao Temple, and Hualin Temple. It was built in 537 AD in the 3rd year of King Datong of Liang Kingdom in Southern Dynasty. The Chen Clan Academy, which was completed in the 20th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu (1894) after seven years of construction, was actually a massive ancestral hall taking the name of "academy" to circumscribe the Qing government's restriction of construction of sizable halls.


Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, situated on the southern slope of Yuexiu Hill, was constructed between 1929 and 1931, a monument to Dr Sun Yat-sen, the forerunner of Chinese democratic revolution, by the people of Guangzhou and overseas Chinese.
